Ability to change web UI port and disable the UI on GS108v3

The firmware release notes for the GS108v3 state that the web UI works by monitoring all traffic on port 80, and that when flow control is enabled thoughput may be effected. On my switch the throughput is reduced all the way down to around 20Mbps!

I think there should be an option to allow the user to change the web UI port to one that is not likely to have much traffic and even an option to completely disable the web UI.

To make the switch more plug-and-play friendly I also think the default UI port should be changed to something like 84 or have flow control disabled by default.
